Kudos to him. Sounds like he works enough to make a little spending money and is probably enjoying it. May even pick up another language from his co-workers. Great work ethic...you do whatever it takes, no matter your age.

If he made the big bucks, $1,200 monthly Social Security seems low...

’ Sounds like he works enough to make a little spending money and is probably enjoying it. ‘

I agree — that part is fine, it works for him.

But the article is trying to make us feel sorry for him — he should have and could have saved, but didn’t, he could live modestly on SS and his retirement pension, but chooses to work to be able to do and spend more. There is nothing wrong with that, but I am not crying my eyes out over this guy.
